"Tenebrae is one of the Three Sisters or Three Mothers
in occult circles. The prime source of info here is
Thomas De Quincey.
"Tenebrae is Our Lady of Darkness and she weaves the
veil of shadows, the net to snare all mortals. She is
also one of the fractured aspects of the Gnostic
Sophia and the tapestry she knits is the veil of the
heavens--the star studded corset. Her Sisters are
called Suspiria and Lactarae: Lady of Sighs (or
Gasps) and Lady of Tears (or Sorrow). Logic and
philosophy imply a fourth sister who can not be
mentioned."
Which might explain why there are Dario Argento films
called Suspiria and Tenebrae as well. Thomas De
Quincey's Suspiria de Profundis (1856) I know, but
hardly well, so I'm not sure if Tenebrae is a
chracter/element/whatever therein ...
